The device (50) consists of a cylindrically shaped container (60) with a slightly pointed tip (68) and a lid (70) at the opposite end. The tip (68) is inserted into a catheter (15). The lid (70) is opened and the self expanding endoprosthesis (1) inserted into the cylinder (60). A piston (55), similar to the one in a syringe pushes the endoprosthesis (1) towards the catheter (15), thereby reducing its diameter at the tip because of the pointed shape (68) of the container (60). |
